So and so...

Highly pigmented and longlasting but also quite dry and difficult to apply evenly. Not too happy about the shade: the homepage describes &quot;Beaujolais&quot; as &quot;a matte mauve with flirtatious pink undertones&quot;. I find that it&#39;s anything but matte - rather heavy on the mother-of-pearl shimmer. The effect is a frumpy 1980&#39;s look.

Lovely colour and staying power

I normally like my lip tints darker, but I love this natural purplish colour. I like the colour in this better than the other colour I have in this – Flirt – even if I love dark colours, Flirt was too dark for me. It tastes a little better than the Flirt too – but that may be due to the other being on it’s way of going rancid (the natural oils in it) when I received it. However I prefer the taste in the Kiss My Lips Organic Shimmers and Alba’s Terra Tint’s – the peppermint in them is so refreshing during a working day. But what I like with these compared to Organic Shimmers and Terra Tints is that they are very saturated with colour and less shimmer – also have a thicker consistence so they lasts well.
UPDATE: I believe this is weaker / not as saturated as last time I bought it. For a more saturated rosy pink I prefer the Berry color of the Hemp Organics' tints or Maroon Creek from Elemental Herbs. They both tastes better(the Elemental Herbs even tastes peppermint :-)), have just as good or better texture, are more saturated (the Hemp Organics also without shimmer, which I love) and better value.
